⚙️ Key Features

• 103 kg
• 22 applications across TWD, TD, TAMD and TAD series engines
• Supersedes 3837434
• Structural housing between engine and drive
• Also supersedes Volvo part number 11032003

🔌 Function

Encloses the flywheel and forms the structural joint between the engine block and the transmission or generator end.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Cracks around the mounting flange or bolt holes
• Oil weeping from the housing joint or rear seal area
• Misalignment or vibration between engine and transmission
• Dowel or spigot bores worn, giving a loose fit
• Threads pulled or stripped in the flange

🛠️ Service Notes

• At 103 kg this is a lifting-gear job, not a two-hands lift, and the engine must be properly supported while it is off
• Renew the rear main seal and housing gasket while access is open
• Check the alignment and dowel fit on assembly, as a housing out of true will destroy couplings and bearings
